Benefits & Features
Engine and Hydraulics
Engine
Six cylinder turbocharged engine built for power, reliability, economy and low emissions will keep the machine up and running.
Hydraulic Cross Sensing System
Improves productivity with faster implement speeds and quicker, stronger pivot turns.
Fine Swing Control
Fine swing control cushions swing start and stop for better implement control.
Hydraulic Cylinder Snubbers
The hydraulic cylinder snubbers at the rod-end of the boom cylinders and both ends of the stick cylinders cushion shocks and increases cylinder life, keeping the machine working longer.
Controllability
The hydraulic system offers precise control to the 330C L, reducing operator fatigue, improving operator effectiveness and efficiency, which ultimately translates into enhanced performance.
Boom and Stick Regeneration Circuit
Boom and stick regeneration circuit increases efficiency and reduces cycle times for higher productivity and lower operating costs.
Structures
Robotic Welding
Up to 95% of the structural welds on a Caterpillar Excavator are completed by robots. Robotic welds achieve up to three times the penetration of manual welds.
Undercarriage
Durable Cat undercarriage absorbs stresses and provides excellent stability.
Booms and Sticks
Reach Boom
The reach boom features an optimum design that maximizes digging envelopes with two stick choices.
Mass Excavation Boom
The mass excavation boom maximizes productivity. The mass version offers significantly higher digging forces and allows use of larger buckets.
R3.2D Stick
The R3.2D Stick provides the capacity for excellent reach and depth in trenching and general construction applications.
R3.9D Stick
Made of high-tensile strength steel and designed with the same application needs in mind as the R3.2D, with the added capability of increased reach and depth.
M2.55E Stick
The M2.55E Stick is suited to high-capacity and high-digging force buckets used in trenching, excavation, and other general construction work. It has been designed with reach and depth for good truck loading match.
M3.2C Stick
Designed mainly for large earth moving, the M3.2C Stick has an operating envelope that suits it extremely well to general excavation and excavation with large earth volume.
M2.5D Stick
The M2.5D Stick uses a D-family bucket and was designed for high volume earth moving, powerful digging force and a large capacity bucket. Combined with an M boom, this Stick delivers outstanding productivity.
M2.6E Stick
The M2.6E stick is used with the mass excavation boom is designed for truck loading in larger earth moving applications.
Operator Station
Operator Station
The 330C L operator work station is quiet with ergonomic control placement and convenient adjustments, low lever and pedal effort, ergonomic seat design and highly efficient ventilation.
Monitor
New, compact monitor enhances viewing while displaying a variety of easy to read and understand language-based information.
Work Tools - Attachments
Heavy-Duty Power (HDP) Buckets
Designed to improve breakout force and machine cycle times, the Heavy Duty Power Bucket (HDP) compliments the General Purpose, Heavy Duty, and Heavy Duty Rock bucket lines.
General Purpose (GP) Buckets
General Purpose Buckets are best for digging in soft to hard ground with low to moderately abrasive materials.
Ditch Cleaning (DC) Buckets
These wide shallow buckets are best for bank forming, ditch cleaning, and finishing.
Heavy-Duty Rock (HDR) Buckets
Heavy-Duty Rock Buckets perform best when digging fragmented rock, frozen ground, caliche, and highly abrasive materials.
Heavy-Duty (HD) Buckets
Heavy-duty buckets are for digging in moderate to hard material and feature large ground engaging tools, thick cutting edges and thick bottom and side wear plates to improve performance in demanding conditions.
Quick Couplers
The Pin Grabber Plus and the Dedicated Hydraulic Quick Coupler enhances machine versatility by enabling the rapid change over of a wide range of work tools in the field.
Monitor
With the optional tool control system, up to five different tool settings may be pre-programmed and selected from the electronic controller through the monitor.
Work Tools
Choose from a variety of work tools such as hammers, shears, compactors, thumbs, rotators, grapples or crushers. Ask your Cat dealer for information on attachments or special configurations.
Tool Control System
The optional tool control system maximizes work tool productivity by configuring hydraulic flow, pressure, and operator controls to match a specific work tool. System versatility enables a wide range of tools to be used. Factory installed combined function, hammer and thumb circuits are available as attachments.
Serviceability
Extended Service Interval
330C L service and maintenance intervals have been extended to reduce machine service time and increase machine availability.
Radiator Compartment
The left rear service door allows easy access to the engine radiator. A reserve tank and drain cock are attached to the radiator for simplified maintenance.
Air Filter Compartment
The air filter features a double-element construction for superior cleaning efficiency. When the air cleaner plugs, a warning is displayed on the monitor screen inside the cab.
Ground Level Service
The design and layout of the 330C L was made with the service technician in mind. Many service locations are easily accessible at ground level allowing critical maintenance to get done quickly and efficiently.
Pump Compartment
A service door on the right side of the upper structure allows ground-level access to the pump and pilot filter.
Capsule Filter
The hydraulic return filter, a capsule filter, is situated outside the hydraulic tank. This filter prevents contaminants from entering the system when hydraulic oil is changed and keeps the operation clean.
Diagnostics and Monitoring
The 330C L is equipped with S•O•SSM sampling ports and hydraulic test ports for the hydraulic system, engine oil and for coolant. A test connection for the Electronic Technician (ET) service tool is located behind the cab.
Anti-Skid "Punched Star" Plate
Anti-skid punched-star plate covers top of storage box and upper structure to prevent slipping during maintenance. The plate can be removed for cleaning.
Fan Guard
Engine radiator fan is completely enclosed by fine wire mesh, reducing the risk of an accident.
Greasing Points
A concentrated remote greasing block on the boom delivers grease to hard-to-reach locations.
